Fox in crisis

[Kiwi Eagle]

interesting little video of Bryan Fletcher doing the rounds on social media at the moment, and I'm also curious as to why Finchy, who has documented alcohol and drug issues, hasn't been sighted on screen for a few weeks

The silence is deafening, but surely Rothfield and co will be all over this and treat it the same as they would a club in the same situation ......

Just another thought on fox Fairfax media swallowed by ch 9 over here (cough cough merger)thanks again zmalcom Turnball , and with STAN the streaming platform set to get a boost which includes unnamed sport.

Not sure if stan is owned by either or being purchased but in the future this could sound alarm bells for fox.

Am i right in saying ch 9 purchased the rights and onsold to fox.

Could get interesting as these dying platforms try to make themsekves relevant again

I have a feeling it's a stitch up

I'm the same as you in that regard, but the journos usually have no problem leaving the facts out of a story

For example if it happened to Jarryd Hayne, how quick do you think Kent would be on him ?

Seems to be the result of an idiot uber driver ...

To get a gig on fox sports these days you have to be a grub ex-player or a tarted up weather girl who can breathlessly state with conviction inane nonsense like " the first time Parra have scored more than 8 points in the second have since .. 2 weeks ago" .....

or a tarted up weather girl

 

[Woodsie]

Okay .... maybe my comments on the girls was a bit hasty ..... they do serve a purpose ...

 

[Clay]

The same people that own foxtel also own Stan. I think there were some laws around anti competitive or something as to why they arent marketed under the same brand. It was explained to me once when I worked there, clearly wasn't paying attention

 

[HappilyManly]

Fox Sports broke off foxtel last year.
So the 9 merger is only of the non sports content.

I just read this and wondered

And usually blonde!!

Do your due diligence and check out how many blonde weather girls there are.

I travel to many states and it’s a trend that’s Australia wide.

Not that there’s anything wrong with that Mark.

I’m no Hayne fan but FMD if Kent doesn’t sweat on any little thing to use against him. The man’s an agenda merchant. Earth to Paul... you played one game of first grade as a back up halfback you farkin dud... One more than me you might try to say... but I’m not some over talking big mouthed wanker who speaks on television each night like I’m some farkin immortal...

Spot on, on 360 the other night he was getting stuck into Hayne because he has been playing very well for the last month ...

 

[nightster]

at least when he is sticking it to Jarhead he's not giving a Manly player a hard time ..

It did happen to Hayne,a photo he put on Instagram(I think)of his holiday home,after a party from the night before.White powder was seen on the table.Unfortunately my memory betrays me and I can’t remember if a fuss was made of it

I think that's just sun bleaching from looking out the window all the time.😉
